Russian website Kommersant reported that, as the press were ushered out before the meeting proper began, Mr Putin said: ?Say hi to your president. He turned out to be quite a powerful person. He raped 10 women. We?re all amazed. We all envy him.?

The Russian media have been quick to try and defend their nation?s president, speculating that Mr Putin simply wanted to express support for Mr Olmert, who has been put in a difficult position by the Israeli president?s actions. \
The last para is a joke - sounds more like a feeble attempt to justify nothing

Who knows... but reading Putin's quote it does sound as though he's saying Olmert is an asshole and the comment "appears" to be dry humor and cynical.
